Unfortunately, I've truly tested these panels

 Would Recommend

Our house burned down and we began to build our new home. Due to insurance dragging their feet I was worried about timeframe of funds to continue and finish the home.

Great product for what it was being used for.

Great Purchase

 Would Recommend

This was a great purchase for my new shed. I didn't need to use tyvek or other products to make my walls waterproof. Just tape the seams with zip tape and it is ready to put on the siding.

Great product

 Would Recommend

Started building a new home doing most all the work ourselves so I knew the wall board had to be durable to withstand the weather conditions uncovered for a period of months due to my weekend carpentry schedule. So far the sheathing has been up and uncovered for over two months but still looks like new, no swelling or warping. This is a great product and I will be using the ZIP roof system as well now that I have placed the roof trusses.
